PAY MUCH AND SEE NIX
From the Tombstone Epitsph.
The Old Seenix swindle Is to the front again
some wall street monkey jumpers have taken
noid OF this fossized fraud that was located with
spyglasS from Murderers' Mountain and turned
out 10 De dry well In old cattle lot instead OF
mine, when investigated. They have walked the
poor Old corpse up, loaded the well with specimens
from the California digg1ngs, made company
and sent cargo OF mineral sharps out to make
roois OF themselves and the public. The stock Of
the Seenix is we hear, already listed on the New
YORK Exchange. BY the time the scientific ten
derieet get in their fine work with the blowpipe
anu anu tne cupe, there won't be fool left in the
East that don't own Seenix stock. The monkey
Jumpers are no fools, consequently they won't
own any day longer than they ought.
